When you’re self employed, your energy has such an impact on your business! I’m not talking about your energy levels here, I’m talking about your vibration, your feeling state. The cosmic law of correspondence states;
As within, so without.
So what does that mean? What’s going on inside of you (what you’re thinking and feeling) will manifest it’s exact likeness in your external reality. When you’re loving life, your business feels easy and effortless, right? So what happens if you’re in a funk, feeling flat, or just over it? The good news is that there’s lots of things we can do to shift our energy. I also believe that it’s important to first check where you’re at in your cycle, because it could be hormones! If you don’t cycle then you can use the moon – follow Laura Dick for juicy info on all things cycle and business.
We know that everything is connected, and your business is no exception to that. So for me, I learn to ride the waves of my cycle, and make sure I’m doing lots of things I love. There’s lots of advice out there on how to shift your energy when you’re in a funk, there’s the usual things like getting outside in the sunshine and fresh air, getting our feet on the earth, but you’ve heard those before, plenty of times I’m sure. So today, I’m hoping to offer you a compilation you haven’t seen before. Settle in for my list of 56 ways to shift your vibration when you’re in a funk, and yes, you’ll see some shameless plugs for my meditations that are specifically for heart centred entrepreneurs, women with sole trader businesses and small business owners. Most of them won’t cost you a cent.
1. Call or message someone who gets it, and who you feel safe to share openly with. Ask if they have the time and the capacity (because that’s important) for you to vent. If they give you the green light, share your frustrations with no filter, get all of that shit off your chest
